Blackpool - Coventry City betting tips and odds

Kickoff starts at 16:00 on 18/03/2023 played @ Bloomfield Road refereed by Geoff Eltringham

Blackpool have their work cut out for them if they want to beat Coventry City. They are widely considered to be the weaker team – though the difference is not huge, to be fair. Overall, it’s shaping up to be an exciting showdown.

2.38 on an away match is what many punters run away from but Coventry are a team capable of big things. Therefore, backing them in this match might not be a bad idea after all.

Blackpool will lack no confidence following their Queens Park Rangers victory recorded in the previous Championship round. Their supporters are looking for successive home wins after what’s been a surprisingly straightforward HT/FT win.

Coventry drove their previous away game to a stalemate – a tie that stayed in place for the majority of the game’s runtime. Pre-match Championship betting odds gave them a 2.23 shot to win, though, so they certainly had a shot at winning more than a single point.

The home team’s tendency to see their defence crumble under the pressure of away games is worrying – they conceded more than 5 times over the previous 3 away games. The fact that they’re at Bloomfield Road this Saturday makes things easier for them, but not by a lot.

Looking over the visitors and their recent history, we noticed they’ve scored more than 5 goals in their previous 3 appearances. This signals a consistent ability to score in most matchups, which is good news for their supporters.

With an away win priced at 2.38, The Sky Blues are marked as the favourites in this matchup. However, it’s worth noting that they lost their previous engagement with Blackpool – one in which they were the home team.

We can look forward to an exciting game as both teams have their full lineups available, thanks to no suspensions or injuries.

An Under 2.5 Goals bet combines the best of both worlds: it’s a fairly safe bet with a high probability of success, but it also offers decent betting value. You can place it on the Betsson priced at 1.70 odds.
